Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Living with the Unknown

By Brian E. Voncannon

You may be familiar with Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS), but many are not. Although countless people in the medical profession are seeking a cause and cure, it still remains a mystery to most. This book will give you a glimpse into the world of a very complex and debilitating disease. Written by one who suffers from this illness personally, you will have the opportunity to learn what it is like to experience CFIDS first hand. There are no confusing statistics, sales pitches for useless products, or promises of an overnight cure. This book presents the author's self-reported case study in a no-nonsense manner, geared toward people with CFIDS and the medical professional seeking more information. It is the author's hope that by sharing his experiences, other individuals will not feel alone in their battle with the unknown.
